  • Newsfeed, the most advanced BBS newsfeed scroller in existence, written from the ground up by the sysop. Completely customizable and supports thousands of news sources and searches millions of articles!
  • Wyrmwood RPGBBS- An entire subboard that is an RPG-BBS hybrid based on Hack & Slash Amiga RPGBBS
  • FTN Areas including RetroNet, C=Net, and ArakNet
  • Massive Art Gallery including support for font switching on modern terminals such as Syncterm or Netrunner
  • Amiga Scene Repository with thousands of files archives from legendary boards such as Boondocks as well as the latest Amiga releases
  • Miskatonic Library which offers hyperlinked horror and short stories from H.P. Lovecraft, Stephen King, and others as well as a nonfiction section.
  • *New* games developed and released such as the hilarious Bad Libs!
  • Much More! This is a very active Amiga BBS and new features are constantly being released. Come check it out!

Kindly visit using a capable terminal such as Syncterm(recommended and free!) or Netrunner. Windows default telnet, mTelnet, etc are NOT supported and will give you errors and mangle the artwork. This board offers an optional Classic Mode for Amiga and retro terminals that disables the unique animation system and affects some text placement as well. Our new user process is needlessly excessive and is about to undergo an overhaul. For now power through it- it’s worth it!

I'm the sysop of aBSiNTHE BBS, a badass Amiga board 🙂 I own a small event production and lighting company Perfect Event Entertainment(raleigheventproduction.com). I love retro computing and retro gaming, cooking, quality absinthe, post-rock and electronica, and DJing.
